A special episode of Guy Kawasaki's Remarkable People that involves not one but nine remarkable people. They are experts in the fields of such as psychology, history, decision sciences, and human behavior. They agreed to participate in this special project in order to help combat the coronavirus. I asked them to assume that we figured out the development, manufacturing, and logistics of vaccination. Then I posed one question: how do we ensure as many people as possible get vaccinated?

Amy Errett talks about how and why she created one of the hottest tech companies: Madison Reed, an at-home hair color company, has seen a huge boom in business during the pandemic. In 2016, Madison Reed released visualization tools such as a chatbot that analyzes primary and secondary tones to customize a customer's dye, and an augmented reality tool that uses a customer's smart phone or laptop camera to simulate a new hair color. We talked about Amy's choice to use raw, untouched photos in her promotions. At the forefront of beauty innovation, Madison Reed created the first ever Smart 8-Free permanent hair color free of harsh ingredients: ammonia, parabens, resorcinol, PPD, phthalates, gluten, SLS, and titanium dioxide and it's leaping bunny certified meaning it is cruelty-free. Their motto: Confident is the New Beautiful.
